Factors of 5498
List of positive integer factors of 5498 that divides 5498 without a remainder.
1,2,2749,5498
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5750,5498 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5750,5498 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,285
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3135
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3135
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5750/11,5498/285 is 2/3135
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 11,285 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,285) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,285) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,285) = ( 11 × 285 ) / 1
LCM(11,285) = 3135 / 1
LCM(11,285) = 3135
